I personally wouldn't pick any of those choices, but Phosguard will work and biopellets and Renew likely will not, unless yfou need to export only a small amount.

I compare the many ways to deal with phosphate here:

I personally used GFO, growing macroalgae (both of which export a lot of Phosphate) and skimming, activated carbon and organic carbon dosing (which export smaller amounts).
